First

Pardon me for even considering myself as a lomographer. My love story with my camera started when I received it as a holiday present from my bf. I was raving over it not because I have long been into photography, but because of well... curiosity. I have never owned a camera in my life (unless my PDA phone camera's qualified). While everyone was into digital cameras, I was on the verge of bankruptcy due to my impulsive book-hoarding (not buying). Reading has become an addiction that I developed a habit of checking out authors and buying books in alphabetical order (oops). I love how words translate images in such a way that it leaves room for your mind to wander, possibly along the lines of the author's own image,or as far as where your imagination will take you. This is exactly what sparked my curiosity with lomography. The tag line "Just point and shoot" gave me the heart to try out lomography since it lets you take endless images without thinking of the technicalities of photography (which I am completely clueless), just letting yourself feel the moment and just appreciate the images when it's already processed. I am on my 3rd film with only 1 roll processed. Long way to go for me. Long live Lomography!

Lomo cameras are avaliable at Team Manila Jupiter and Powerplant Mall
